I wouldn't be shocked if Castellanos/Story sign bigger contracts than my guesses. The market is insane.
The market IS insane! and I tend to agree with you on most off seasons, but I think this free agent market is so deep that it will be a buyers market, somewhat, especially at SS.
There’s only so many teams that need a SS that also have the money.
Boston will not need one
LAD will not need one
LAA needs pitching!
DET will probably get Baez
Marlins Correa
Yankees Seager
Astros Semien
Cardinals resigned AW&YM payrolls at $185 22’
Whitesox may try to get Semien for 2B?
SD is set
NYM may try to sign Baez for 2B?
Phillies maybe buyers?
I can’t think of any other buyers that make sense

I think he's here for another 2 years minimum.
I could see another couple of years, but very few managers stay long enough to be a deciding factor in which free agents are pursued. That is especially true for a manager who hasn't had more than a 2 year leash.

did you see how many people are in the room for the Yankees decision making process? I think it's like 30 something!

They just concluded their pro scouts meeting in Arizona. Laying out the foundation for the off-season.

Wouldn’t mind the Rangers picking him up and dropping a lesser player, which I believe we have a few.

Owen White pitched a solid 5 innings today. Foscue was hitless, but walked 3 times. Duran had 3 hits and was just a triple shy of a cycle.

What does the opening day OF and DH look like?
Lf-
Cf-
Rf- Adolis I would assume
Dh-

1B-Lowe
2B-Ibanez/Solak
3B-Jung
SS-Story/IKF
C-Heim/Trevino

Who would make a good trade partner for an OF assuming we’re trading IKF and possibly more their way?

Would IKF and Heim for Akil Baddoo and Jake Rogers be a good trade?

I really hope we don’t sign Kershaw. Maybe he will have a great turn around, I know he’s not that old but it seems like his arm is trending down.
His biggest problem is back issues that's he's been having since 2016, one wrong twist or misstep and he's out again, am wondering if he'll up up like Harrison :think:

And we're down a few posters from last year as well, I believe.
Probably because team is struggling and overbearing personalities...
